"Wallops"

U.S.-based company Rocket Lab has announced the selection of Wallops at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport in Virginia as their first U.S. launch location to supplement capabilities from their New Zealand launch pad. The announcement comes roughly one month ahead of the company’s anticipated New Zealand launch of an Electron rocket named “It’s Business Time”, the first operational Electron flight for Rocket Lab after two test flights in 2017 and 2018, respectively.
